Quad County Chain Shoots Update The shoot on January 10 at Sauk Prairie Trap and Skeet has been cancelled. Youth Shooting Updates I received some information for the Kettle Moraine Trapshooting Conference and the Wisconsin SCTP events. This information can be found on the youth page. The 2021 KMTC schedule has been added to the Youth Info page. Kettle Moraine Trapshooting Conference I received this note in an email from a representative of the KMTC. They received a donation in January, 2020 from the clubs that support this site. I removed the recipient's last names in the interest of their privacy. On behalf of the Kettle Moraine Trapshooting Conference, I would thank the East Wisconsin Shotgun Sports for the 2020 donation of $500.00 that was applied to our three Scholarship recipients listed; Alex P., Alexis S. and Eleanore K.. Congratulations to our recipients that received $250.00 each and thank you again to the East WI Shotgun Sports members that made this possible!

Quad County Chain Shoot There have been some cancellations due to COVID-19. Attached is a poster with the details, and the changes have also been noted on the calendar page. Young Hunters Many of us are hunters as well as trap shooters. When should we start taking our children or grandchildren along with us? Check out the links page for an interesting article under Miscellaneous Links titled : Young Hunters: When to get children started. Colleges with Trap and Skeet Programs If you enjoy trap or skeet shooting, are in high school, and you're planning to attend college, you might want to consider schools that have strong trap and skeet programs. Attached is a list that could help get you connected with a college that can provide the major you are looking for and competitive shotgun shooting opportunities. Occasional Site Outages I recently received a note through the mail that people were unable to access the site. After a lot of time on the phone and on chats, and lots of research on my own, it turned out that the counter that I had been using since 2012 was linked with a site that was blacklisted with the hosting service's new malware scanner. I removed the code for the old counter and installed one from a different site. I no longer get any notifications that there is malware on the site. The issue should be resolved, but a couple of days ago, the site was down again. I had to reset a file, and the site came back up. I will continue to try to monitor the site for this issue. If anyone notes that the site is down in the future, please email me at webmaster@eastwisconsinshotgunsports.org. Thank you. Niel 5-17-2020
Shooting event to support Cancer Research I was given some information about an organization called Gunning For Hope. The web site is GunningForHope.org. Check out the organization and consider supporting them. Thanks to all who support "Cause Shoots". We are all faced with challenges in our lives, but some take the form of serious health issues such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes, etc. Many fellow shooters are directly affected by these diseases, and other shooters rally to support them with fund raisers in the form of "Cause Shoots", such as the cancer shoots at Berlin and Hartford and the juvenile diabetes shoot at Eastshore. I personally want to thank all of you who support these wonderful causes. REMEMBER: INTRODUCE SOMEONE TO SHOOTING. IT'S THE FUTURE OF THE SPORT |
